Valentino Rossi
Saw him racing 250s at Donnington way back. As a Yamaha rider myself, I always rooted for #46.
A modern(ish) day Barry Sheene?

Well being 35 I missed out on watching him race and have only seen tv footage, but my whole life has been surrounded by motorcycles and racing!!

Aberdeen FC. Old enough to remember us being a proper good team. None of this settling for 3rd stuff that is considered an achievement.

Didn’t really take advantage of the end of the Ibrox outfit. Probably missed the boat now with the emergence of Sevco.
Charlotte Dujardin . What’s more to say , tight jods, knee high boots .

Couldn’t agree more. Sadly a lot of delusional Don’s fans going about still though…

Crumbs, where to start with my rugby heroes.
Mike Catt was god-like to me in the mid-nineties, can probably still name the Bath RC first team from that era.
Then Rassie Erasmus in the late nineties for the Cats in Super 12 and the Springboks. Was sooooo great to see him win the World Cup as a coach, such a fantastic rugby brain.
There will never be another player in the same league as Richie McCaw. Still remember watching him in the NPC for Canterbury and then getting man of the match against Ireland on the autumn tour of that year (2001 if memory serves). My long-suffering husband was good enough to drive his highly emotional seven months pregnant wife on a 400 mile round trip to see McCaw play in the in 2015 World Cup. I’m something of a kiwi-phile anyway, so I will always have a soft spot for the All Blacks, and drag out my 1997 jersey for an occasional airing when they are playing.

Excellent, old school rugby. Before proper rucking became a thing of the past. You can’t beat somebody getting a good shoeing.

Definitely, for both his cricket and more recently his antics on various TV programmes. Naturally funny entertainer who can have the craic.

It’s rugby for me (obvs!).
Favourite teams: Bath, England, British Lions - as well as my own local club…and also have a soft spot for Wales as that’s where I learnt, played and watched a lot of rugby whilst at Uni.
Favourite players: too many to count…Jonny, Johnno, Will Greenwood, Billy Whiz, Jonah, Anthony Watson, …I could go on!
Really miss playing and the craic but my knees (and a few other joints) are what’s known in the trade as fooked.
Bristol rovers, I know there not doing the best but been a gas head since I was born.
